Hi all, My DD is 16 mos and I'm expecting another LO in December. I've had DD on the same routine since she was about 5 months old. Bath, massage, bottle, and place her in her crib awake. I do the same for naps except i omit the bath and replace it with diaper change. She's always done ok sleeping away from home b/c i bring her Lovee/white noise machine wherever we go. But most recently she REFUSES to sleep in her pack n play away from home. Heck, i've even set it up in our master bedroom at home and she screamed bloody murder there too! We are just now transitioning from 2 naps to 1, she is cutting molars, but this lack of sleep away from home started before all this. I'm feeling so frustrated b/c I can't take her anywhere. Next week we are supposed to go on our annual trip to the mountains, and it looks like i won't be going. I just can't take all the crying and OT disasters. Any advice??? i try to recreate the home environment as much as possible - but it's not working. Also - what does everyone do in a hotel room where your LO can clearly see you in the same room?? I just know that's going to cause hours of protest! Thanks in advance!
